That's why the lab owner asked you, as Detective Nancy Drew, to expose the terrifying truth about The Deadly Device!

  • Choose Difficulty Levels!Play at Amateur or Master Sleuth level and erase mistakes without starting over

My Take on the Game

I have had the chance to try quite a view of the most recent Nancy Drew games by Her Interactive, and to me it seems that each is getting better and better than the past versions that have been released. This game was no exception! The story was strong, the animation top-notch, and the overall gameplay was superb.

I even offered my daughter the opportunity to try the game. She is a huge fan of Nancy Drew and loves finding out how she swallows each of her mysteries and to be honest she is very good at identifying the clothes that need to the mystery being so. I was so great about this game was at all the things that I mentioned above but also in the digestive reasoning the game requires of you. This is the type of game that I like my daughter to play because it is not simply one where you sit and brainlessly play, but instead, you truly have to think to be able to move further in the game itself.

All in all this is a great game that I would highly recommend to all, not just Nancy Drew fans, but all gamers young and old alike.

My Take on the Game
I have been playing Nancy Drew Games for some time, and this one was so interactive and engaging. I loved the fact that there were two levels of play as I like to have my seven year old daughter play as well, and the regular version is still a bit tough. The graphics were great and the game itself had a wonderful storyline that made the game both interactive and challenging. This game fits well into the line of Nancy Drew Games from the past. I will say that the hint hotline was a great asset as some of the aspects of the game were definitely challenging, and with that in mind being able to reach out and ask for help was wonderful! Overall, this was a game that I would encourage all to look into!
